SPECIAL TIPS
1.
Keep the kitchen well
ventilated
during
the
cleaning
cycle
to help
get rid of normal
heat
odors and smoke.
2.
Clean the oven before
it gets heavily
soiled.
Cleaning
a very soiled
oven takes longer
and
results in more smoke
than usual.
3.
If the cleaning
cycle
doesn't get the oven as
clean
as you
expected,
the cycle
may not have been set
long enough.
Set the
cleaning
time longer
for heavier
soil.
4.
Oven racks lose their shine, discolor
5.
and become
harder to slide on their
guides
when they are left in the oven
during the cleaning
cycle.
To make
them slide easier, polish the edges
of
the racks and rack guides
with a soapy
steel-wool
pad, rinse well, and wipe
on a thin coat of salad
oil.
To stop the cleaning
cycle
after it has
started:
l
Turn the Stop flrne Knob clockwise
until the hand points to the right time
of day.
l
Turn the Oven Selector
and Oven
Temperature
Control to OFF.
l
When the Lock Light turns off, move the
Lock Lever back to the left. DO NOT
FORCE IT. Wait until it moves easily.
HOW IT WORKS
During the self-cleaning
cycle,
the oven gets much hotter than it does for
baking
or broiling...approximately
875 F (468" C]. This heat breaks
up grease
and soil, and burns it off.
The graph
shows approximate
temperatures
and times during a self-cleaning
cycle
set for two hours.

Notice that the heating
stops when the two-hour
setting IS up, but that it takes a
while longer for the oven to cool down enough
to unlock.
